    Between Simmons and Gregorius, I would take Simmons. He's in a better lineup for him to drive in and score more runs.Gregorius hit only .267 in the minors, I doubt he has an average over .300 in the big leagues.Simmons has more potential, and should have a good--or great--season.

    Between Betancourt, Hafner, Brown, and Young, I would pick up Hafner. He always had power, he has just been injury prone. The Yankees lineup will eventually get healthy, which should give Hafner a better chance to drive in more runs.He's also in a hitter friendly Yankee Stadium.Some say Brown will have a big season, but the same was said about him last year. At this point, I don't see him putting up monster numbers anyway.Young will most likely never have a season in 2010 where he hit .298/.333/.493 with 21 home runs and 112 runs batted in. I would expect 20 home runs and 70 runs batted in with a decent average. There's no way Betancourt is keeping up this production.IF you have someone to drop for Betancourt or Young, it wouldn't be a bad idea, but keep in mind they are probably due to cool down a bit than what they're doing right now.

    BQ: He's not a big power hitter right now, but it will come as he gets older.He can still hit for a high average and has good plate discipline.He hit .299/.345/.473 in the minors.This season, I would say the expectations for him would be 20-30 home runs, 70-100 rbi, with a .270+ batting average.He plays in a hitter's friendly ballpark--Coors Field--which should help his production. Pick him up if you have someone to drop for him.

    Hold on to Gregourious, Simmons is great defensively, but he can't hit. I also would go with Hafner, when healthy he has the best track record.

    Hanley Ramirez at #a million, yet in addition think of Alex Rodriguez would be a good selection. the two placed up extensive numbers, yet you get the stolen bases with Hanley. The participant i'd choose to have on my team is David fee. extensive upside and he shouldn't pass to early on draft day except you reside in Tampa.
